This keyboard is designed to provide users with a familiar layout that includes separate number keys, punctuation in the usual places, and arrow keys. It is based on the AOSP Gingerbread soft keyboard and supports multitouch for the modifier keys. The keyboard is especially useful for those who use ConnectBot for SSH access, as it provides working Tab/Ctrl/Esc keys, and the arrow keys are essential for devices that don't have a trackball or D-Pad. The keyboard also supports use of dictionaries provided by AnySoftKeyboard language packs.

However, there are some known issues with the keyboard. Localization for the keyboard layout is incomplete, and some languages and layouts may not be usable on your phone if it lacks the necessary fonts. Right-to-left languages like Arabic and Hebrew are not fully supported on pre-Honeycomb devices. Additionally, many applications don't react to additional keys since they aren't programmed to handle them.

The keyboard supports a wide range of keyboard layouts, including Armenian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Czech, Danish, English Dvorak, English QWERTY, English/British, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Lao, Norwegian, Persian, Portugese, Romanian, Russian, Russian phonetic, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian/Bosnian/Croatian/Latin Serbian, Spanish, Swedish, Tamil, Thai, Turkish, and Ukrainian.

Plug-in packages are available for completion dictionaries, and users can see the "other applications by this developer" section for the currently available list. However, users should be aware of the known issues before using the keyboard.
